It's definitely a little short, but not to a fault. I also have a little trouble with the zipper. Other than that this thing is comfortable as fuck and if it's still up don't sleep on it. Size up if you are at all questionable. I'll take some fit pics tonight and post them after dinner.

Ah, fuck. Be really careful when cutting open the pocket, I opened up the interior lining rather than the pocket. The side with the more visible seams (at least on mine) was the one I shouldn't have cut.

Apparently the sewn pocket is somewhat common after doing some research. They say you're supposed to cut the thread with a seam ripper or a small nail cutter. upvote is right, manufacturers do this to hold up it's shape.

Could be the weather where you live? Is it cold and humid? Got a package in recently that came the same way, with like weather conditions.

Also, if you guys plan on layering with it, sizing up is probably better. I think they mentioned that earlier in the thread. And just realized that in Whoadie's pic it sits above the front pockets? Could actually be too small considering that.

I'm 5'8" at 130 pounds, so I think I should be good. Will post fit pics when it arrives.
